On February 20th, the worst natural disaster to hit the Portugese island of Madeira since at least the late nineteenth century—according to public records—led to flash floods and landslides that killed 42 people and injured more than 120 others. Many streets in the capital city of Funchal were filled with mud, water, and debris, overturning vehicles as many residents clung to railings to keep from being swept away (Source: BBC).
In Indonesia, a rain-triggered landslide killed at least 46 people at a tea plantation in a mountainous region on the island of Java on February 23rd (Source: AP). It was estimated that about 500 villagers lost their homes and were forced to evacuate to other nearby villages.
Do Ciclone Xynthia
On February 27th, a strong Atlantic cyclonic depression named Xynthia tore northeastward across coastal western Europe with hurricane force winds and heavy rains. It was the worst storm in that region since 1999, killing at least 62 people—the majority in France, where sea walls broke in the town of L'Agillon and a national disaster was declared. More than one million people across France, Spain, Germany, Portugal, and Belgium lost power as winds reached nearly 100 mph (160 km/hr) along the coast. Wind speeds of 109 mph (175 km/hr) were recorded atop the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
